A little luck is always welcome by the transportation manager. Diesel costs on the world market just declined and that is a Godsend for the transportation industry. This was a lucky transportation solution.
But "smart" companies are looking to make structural changes in transportation to both reduce costs and decrease their carbon footprint. Both are long lasting transportation solutions.
It is well known by experts that diesel costs will continue to fluctuate and continue to rise in the future. New refineries or bio-diesel are the only things that can alleviate tight production capacity.
A recent article in the Wall Street Journal (Wall Street Journal Reports on Diesel Prices) dealt with the matter. You can read about it with additional commentary by Tom Moore, a highly regarded transportation consultant who works for many of the Fortune 50 companies such as Procter & Gamble and BP by going to http://www.transportationoptimization.com/twoblog.asp.
One approach when looking for transportation solutions is to follow the example of the big companies and see what they are doing and what kind of technology they are using. Procter & Gamble is using an optimization technology that can cut costs and reduce global warming. Kraft replaced the part of their deployment system it used to convert requirements into truckload shipments.
Kraft is able to not only save money but also reduce good size chunks of its carbon footprint with a new piece of technology from a company just outside of Nashville Tennessee. Transportation l Warehouse Optimization has shown Kraft how to maximize efficiencies with the AutoVLB (Automatic Vehicle Load Building). Kraft can now operate bigger loads and more importantly guide loaders in how to construct the optimized load. This serves as a huge advantage for Kraft and good structural transportation solutions.
